President Bola Tinubu has appointed Dayo Mobereola as the new Director-General of the Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency (NIMASA), with an initial term of four years, subject to renewal.
This decision came following the conclusion of Bashir Jamoh’s tenure as the head of the agency, according to a statement on the Presidency of the Federal Republic of Nigeria’s X account.
The statement also highlighted President Tinubu’s expectations for Mobereola to leverage his extensive experience in his new position to fulfil NIMASA’s objectives.
These include upholding world-class standards in maritime safety administration, recognizing maritime labour, preventing and controlling maritime pollution, conducting search and rescue operations, enforcing cabotage, fostering shipping development, and managing ship registration.
